Chapter 1473: Grandmaster, you are finally home
The Crown Prince's sacrifice to heaven is a major event that concerns the country's destiny.
After Xuanyuan Jin arrived at Tianlong Temple, he first listened to the new abbot of Tianlong Temple, Master Zhiyuan, preaching Buddhist scriptures and explaining the Dharma. Then he knelt on a cushion and listened to the monks burning incense and chanting scriptures...
After completing the whole process, they moved to a dragon spring in the back mountain, where they burned incense, bathed, changed clothes, etc.
Finally, I will wait until tomorrow to burn incense and offer sacrifices to the heavens, praying for God’s grace and blessings...
As for whether God will show up, it depends on luck.
Anyway, there are many red dragon fish in the lotus pond of Tianlong Temple.
At that time, according to the method that has been passed down for thousands of years, scattering fish food into the lotus pond will always have a good meaning.
When Tang Bao arrived at Tianlong Temple, it was almost dusk.
The setting sun cast a dazzling red glow, enveloping Tianlong Temple, majestic and mysterious.
Although Tang Bao is a princess, she has a token in her hand and can enter and leave the palace at will.
However, at this time, you cannot enter Tianlong Temple.
Because the prince was offering sacrifices to heaven, there was a guard every five steps and a guard every ten steps in Tianlong Temple. It was surrounded like an iron tower.
Fortunately, Tangbao took out the token and asked someone to notify him, and everything was fine.
The young monk guarding the gate of Tianlong Temple was stunned when he heard the words from the royal guards at the foot of the mountain. He then threw down the broom in his hand and ran towards the temple at a rapid pace.
"Host...Host...Princess Ford is here to deliver something again..."
The little monk ran and shouted excitedly.
The temple, where the only sounds were the curling scent of Buddhist incense and chanting, became filled with a much more worldly air because of this series of shouting.
"stop!"
A majestic voice sounded, and the bald, round-faced Master Huipu glared at the little monk.
"No loud noises!"
Little novice monk: "...No, uncle, it's Princess Fude!"
The young monk looked at Master Huipu with shining eyes.
Master HP: “…”
I don't understand.
The young novice monk stamped his feet, looking at his uncle with a look of disappointment, and said anxiously, "Abbot Zhiren once said that Princess Fude is full of merits. Last time she came to give me the Ten Thousand Buddhas Painting, and this time she's here to give me something again. It must be something good!"
Master HP: “…”
I thought of the last incident with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Picture.
If Tang Bao had not taken out that special drawing paper, the original painting of Ten Thousand Buddhas would not have been replaced so easily.
Although not many people know about this, Master HP knows about it.
As for the little monk, no matter whether the Ten Thousand Buddhas Picture left in Tianlong Temple is real or fake, it is enshrined in the Patriarch Hall anyway.
"Uncle Master, I've heard that everything Princess Fude brings out is good stuff." The little monk added anxiously, "Now that she's brought it to our Tianlong Temple, it must be a lost treasure of ours!"
It’s no wonder that although this little monk is young, he is very smart.
After hearing what the young monk said, Master Hui Pu was suddenly speechless.
"Did she say anything to give as a gift?" Master Huipu couldn't help but ask, with a hint of anticipation rising in his heart.
"They say it's a Buddha statue... Oh, right, it looks like it's made of white jade..."
"The holy white jade Buddha statue?" Master Hui Pu suddenly shouted.
"Yes, yes! It's the white jade holy Buddha statue!" The little monk slapped his forehead and shouted.
Master Hui Pu: "...Oh my god! It's actually a white jade holy Buddha statue!"
Master HP turned and ran.
Little novice monk: "..."
The uncle spoke in dialect again.
"Host...Host...something big has happened..."
Master HP shouted excitedly as he ran.
Young novice monk: "...Uncle Master! Wait... I can run fast..."
The little monk shouted and ran after Master Huipu.
"Junior brother, what happened?"
"Junior brother...what happened to Uncle Huipu?
"Junior Brother..."
The young monk didn't run far before he was stopped by other monks.
The originally orderly and peaceful Tianlong Temple, where people chanted scriptures and cleaned, became lively.
"Which Buddha is the white jade holy Buddha statue?" asked a little monk of eight or nine years old.
A group of monks of low seniority: "..."
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
They don't know either.
Master Zhiyuan was reciting the Diamond Sutra in the main hall. When he heard Master Huipu's shouting coming from outside the door, his expression did not change at all, as if he did not hear it.
until--
"White Jade Holy Buddha Statue?!"
Master Zhiyuan suddenly opened his calm eyes, and a hint of shock appeared on his skinny face.
Master HP nodded excitedly.
"Exactly! Princess Ford said..."
Without saying anything, Master Zhiyuan stood up and ran out.
Master HP quickly followed.
The other monks in Tianlong Temple were alarmed. Seeing Master Zhiyuan's posture, they said nothing and just ran after him!
The one who can make the host master like this must be a great Buddha!
So, the imperial guards guarding outside the Tianlong Temple saw the gate of the Tianlong Temple suddenly open, and a large group of monks rushed out from inside.
"Where is Princess Ford?"
"At the foot of the mountain!"
"Okay! Let's go down the mountain..."
A group of monks rushed down the mountain.
When a half-human-height white jade Buddha statue fell into Master Zhiyuan's eyes, he was so excited that he almost cried.
Master Hui Pu couldn't help but shout, "Grandmaster, you're finally home!"
Tang Bao: “…”
The surrounding Royal Guards: "..."
The group of monks of lower generation: "..."
It turned out to be the ancestor!
"Oh my god, Princess Ford actually sent our ancestor back!"
"I told you, if Princess Ford comes to give you something, it must be a treasure!"
"I really hope that Princess Fude will send more gifts to our Tianlong Temple..."
“That’s right…”
"I wonder if there are any other treasures lost in our Tianlong Temple..."
"We're not afraid, we have Princess Fude!"
"Yes, yes! We have Princess Fude!"
A group of young monks, the future pillars of Tianlong Temple, gathered together, chattering, and expressed their confidence in Tangbao from the bottom of their souls.
Master Zhiyuan approached the Buddha statue with a staggering step.
The Buddha statue sits upright on a lotus platform, holding Buddhist beads in one hand and a sword in the other.
One eye was slightly closed, with a hint of tranquility, while the other was wide open, bursting with angry pressure.
One side of his face showed compassion for all living beings, the other side was filled with murderous intent...
In the light and shadow of the setting sun, it exudes a sacred and awe-inspiring light.
Master Zhiyuan: "...Amitabha."
Then, he knelt down.
"Disciple respectfully welcomes the return of the Grandmaster!"
Master Zhiyuan's voice was filled with excitement and piety.
The monks behind him also knelt down.
"Disciple respectfully welcomes the return of the ancestor..."
For a moment, the sound seemed to resound through the sky and echo through the mountains and forests.
Xuanyuan Jin sat upright in a pavilion, surrounded by Buddhist incense and baptized by the Buddha's light. When he heard the noise outside, he stood up.
